I’m a sucker for anything based on Dwarf Fortress or Rimworld, and so Dream Land is right up my alley. It’s cutsier and simpler than its colony management forebears, but it makes some smart choices to streamline the experience to make it a good fit for mobile devices. Dream Land put me in charge of a rag-tag group of either pioneers or bounty hunters, depending on which one of them you ask, who have crash-landed on an unknown planet in pursuit of someone named Liam. The English translation is a bit iffy, and so I was unclear on the relationship between the characters—burly, red-haired George constantly calls everyone else “children!” when addressing the group, but I took that as a strange character trait he picked up in space.

Pros Has single player sandbox with 1 player and 3 ai if you want to A few buildings and 3 main resources Designs are kinda basic but very neat at the same time from building to soldiers The game will have a multiplayer feature, but it's coming on April Cons Basic game it has room for improvement but depends on the dev The long game might get stale you just farm resources keep making sheep's for meat and wait for someone to attack

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it, but take note of some minor issues in the early access version. One Lonely Outpost is a beautiful and engaging colony-building RPG inspired by popular life sim titles like Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon. It’s much more than just a clone, though; One Lonely Outpost brings its own twist to the genre by adding sci-fi elements to the mix. The result is an immersive and relaxing experience, even in its current early access form, but to reach its maximum potential, some guidance and progression issues will need to be addressed.
